Radiator problems

Hi guys.. hope every one is well..

I've got a problem.. My radiator is leaking on the left side of the vehicle. Are there any all aluminum rads available or does one need to have this junky plastic tanked one fixed???

Thanks

Driver side or passenger? I had a problem with mine . It was the fan shroud it rubbed a hole in it. I plugged it with epoxy then put stop leak in the system all good for 25K. My problem was passenger side .

Oh yea.. That stuff is for getting you to the rad shop.. and even then I'd be more inclined to stop every mile and fill the rad..
